@Mike Beer, after being in Raise Masters TWO DAYS, I was able to instantly justify the annual membership fee and then some.

Hopefully you have a Checkbook IRA to avoid the red tape and fees of going through the custodian for each transaction.

Canton is not quite as bad, although they have increased annual fees and initial inspection requirements in the past few years that Akron never put in place. 

It's been great - the property is 100% paid off and the house is worth 300-340k generating approx $2300/mo (that's after utilities/management fees etc.)I'm considering selling the property to buy 3 more within the same price range in the same market. 

We then lease the property on a 3-year lease with the option to buy and the tenant buyer gives us a $4000 option fee to buy the property for $260,000 within the next 3 years.

Its normally fee service providers who are the greatest advocates of the program, whether it be agents, PM's, coaches/gurus. 

We set the purchase price at about 10% higher than todays value and we don't have to pay for realtor fees or closing costs when we go to sell the property.

They can only collect the admin fee which is roughly $150/yr.  

He was a really nice guy, but didn’t seem to know many of the details regarding fees.

Great hosts will be good neighbors, will contribute to local tourism and will pay their taxes and permit fees* A major area to improve on the proposal is the 1 hour time-limit for resolving complaints.
